In a shifting real-estate environment — rising interest rates, tighter banking conditions, and higher equity requirements — property professionals need partners capable of designing tailor-made financial solutions.
PrestaFlex positions itself as an independent, agile player dedicated to the structuring and coordination of complex financings for developers, project sponsors, investors, and real-estate owners in Switzerland and across Europe.
Our mission: to give every real-estate project the most suitable financial structure, combining security, flexibility, and performance.
A comprehensive partner for real-estate financing
PrestaFlex acts as a specialized Debt Advisor, supporting industry professionals in the sourcing, negotiation, and implementation of capital from financial institutions, private investors, and specialized funds.
Our approach is grounded in a precise understanding of each profile’s needs:
- Property developers: end-to-end development financing, from land to commercialization.
- Developers and project sponsors: funding for studies, permitting, construction, and transitional phases.
- Architects and designers: advance-funding solutions for validated or pre-commercial projects.
- Landowners: land value enhancement through pledging or partial refinancing.
- Real-estate companies and funds: portfolio refinancing, acquisitions, and debt consolidation.
- Institutional owners: structuring of disposals, arbitrage, or asset transformation.
Every PrestaFlex solution aims to accelerate development, unlock liquidity, and strengthen investment capacity, while protecting asset value.
Tailor-made solutions across the project life cycle
PrestaFlex covers the full real-estate financing cycle, from initial structuring to long-term refinancing:
1) Development financing
For new builds, promotions, or renovations, PrestaFlex structures solutions that include:
- financing for land, shell works, and fit-out;
- coverage of working-capital needs through delivery;
- bridge or pre-financing ahead of a traditional mortgage.
2) Portfolio and income-property financing
For owners of existing assets, we design structures that:
- refinance existing debt on better terms;
- pool multiple properties into a single facility;
- optimize leverage and treasury ratios across the portfolio.
3) Mezzanine and junior financing
When equity is insufficient to support a project, PrestaFlex arranges second-lien (mezzanine or junior) capital to:
- fill the gap between sponsor equity and bank debt;
- fund the transaction without diluting investors;
- enhance return on invested capital.
4) Refinancing and debt restructuring
We assist real-estate companies in reworking their liabilities:
- extending maturities;
- reducing overall financing costs;
- consolidating multiple loans into one;
- freeing up collateral for new investments.
5) Bridge and transitional financing
When speed is critical (acquisition timing, slow bank processes, transition periods), PrestaFlex sets up short- to mid-term bridge financing, ensuring continuity of the investment or development strategy.
6) Strengthening equity
We also arrange quasi-equity solutions, combining subordinated debt and hybrid instruments.
Goal: strengthen the balance sheet and enable access to larger financings without dilution or loss of control.
Financial engineering serving real-estate value
PrestaFlex’s core strength lies in its ability to analyze, structure, and execute complex financing arrangements. We assess each case along three essential axes:
- Capital structure and LTV to determine optimal leverage;
- Cash flow and yield to align financing with project realities;
- Long-term value, ensuring stability and value creation.
We operate with a holistic view, integrating the legal, tax, and operational dimensions of every deal.
Thanks to this approach, PrestaFlex opens access to institutional or alternative financing, even when traditional banking channels tighten.
One point of contact, controlled execution
PrestaFlex coordinates every step: from file preparation through to financing close.
We ensure confidentiality, predictable timelines, and total transparency in selecting the proposed solutions.
Our values:
- Independence: we act exclusively in the client’s interest.
- Effectiveness: each project benefits from hands-on execution support.
- Innovation: structures designed to adapt, not constrain.
